If it were me, I would do it by hand. However, I would set up an agent group and put the new agent name in the group. In the future, you would need to only update the agent group.
You could try sql update but I am unsure of the table name that would be storing that information. There are others here that could tell you that, but I would have to go through all of them to find out.
Agent group is the way to go. We have two agents that we use for our enterprise software. When quarterly maintenance is due, I normally just remove the affected agent from the group. I could also stop the agent, but that would require that no processes were running on it. If one of the agents is down, then the agent group would automatically switch over to the other agent. Awesome object.

Subject: changing agent i large number of IF workflows
I have a department that changed over to new servers (and agents) with differnt names than the previous. What they did not consider was there are a couple hundred IF workflows with the old agent name used. Is there an easy way to convert all these to the new agent without opening every single one? To add they want the old server and agent usable so I can't simply rename the new agent.
